Welcoming Girls

We warmly welcome girls into our Sixth Form from a wide range of schools, whether single-sex or co-educational, local or further afield. Girls form a valued and vibrant part of our community and make up a significant, highly successful cohort of students each year.

St Albans School offers a unique environment where girls are supported, encouraged and inspired to thrive. The friendly, inclusive atmosphere fosters confidence, independence and ambition.

Girls are fully involved in every aspect of Sixth Form life, including our extensive co-curricular programme. Many enjoy discovering new opportunities such as the Combined Cadet Force (CCF), mountaineering, and a wide range of sports, as well as music, drama, debating, leadership roles and more. The confidence, friendships and sense of achievement they gain along the way are a defining part of their Sixth Form experience.

"Although joining Sixth Form as a girl was a seemingly daunting experience, I was enticed by the exceptional opportunities and high level of teaching St Albans School has to offer. Since coming here in 2021, I have been fortunate enough to be able to take part in the impressive number of cocurricular activities that occur daily. Especially in music – the wide variety of ensembles that I have participated in and the quality of concerts I have played in has been incredible. I am thoroughly enjoying my time at St Albans School."
Millie, Upper Sixth Form

"My move to St Albans School has been really enjoyable. I came from a school which had a similar dynamic in terms of
there being a larger ratio of boys, but my year was small. At St Albans School, the year group is significantly bigger which
is great as it allowed me to meet a range of like-minded new friends. The transition to the School was smooth. We were
each allocated an Upper Sixth Form buddy to help us settle in and find our way. The teachers consistently check up on you to make sure you are ok. St Albans School has definitely provided a foundation for girls to be able to thrive."
Ameerah, Upper Sixth Form

"Obviously, when starting at any new school there are feelings of doubt and nervousness, which I definitely felt, especially
considering I moved from an all-girls school. However, St Albans School has such a welcoming and understanding community that makes me feel like I really belong here."
Bea, Upper Sixth Form
